ok as much as i love the more literal interpretation of icarus (bastille) as a hannigram song (cliff mention!!!) it is so very much chilton. to me. he is The icarus

he digs his own grave again and again and again because maybe just once he'll find something down there besides his own suffering. he flies into the sun repeatedly because maybe if he manages to fly just a bit higher this time he'll reach the warmth it offers. and the wax is melting, the air is thin and he's suffocating and the sea when he falls is freezing, the salty water rushing in burns his lungs but it's not the end. it's never the end. and he'll just get back up and do it again.

icarus' life, it has only just begun - this is still the beginning. one day, he'll have his breakthrough - even if not with gideon, if not with will, or with hannibal, or the dragon. it will happen if he just continues trying. even if he falls once or twice or dozens of times. this is just the beginning.
